  1. I Pm'd Symbiotic and we were thinking that in order to best rehabilitate his image, he would participate in this thread. What do you all think? He requested that you all offer your very best 'stuff' and then after he claims a few packages, he will reciprocate.
  2. I already have a few ideas to run by you for a sketch opportunity.
  3. he changed his name today, old one was astridonna Thanks, I was looking for that. I could have sworn that I saw a name that started with an 'a'
  4. That's the listing for his current auctions. Perhaps he changed his name while under the radar.
  5. From time to time, I complain about having sold my complete run of GI Joe and GI Joe special missions. It annoys me to no end that I got rid of them as they are truly the only comic I go back to read every now and then. I do not think it is worth it to buy them all back in high grade and have another 200 comics laying around. However, this caught my eye on Amazon and I was wondering if anyone had these and what they thought of the GI Joe Omnibus in Hardcover - The Complete Collection. They are up to publishing number 6 which will extend to Issue 61 of the main line, Special Missions 5 and Yearbook 3. They range from $35 to $50 each. If anyone has these, I would appreciate your thoughts on them. I am persuaded to start picking these up rather than recollect the original comics but am trying to weigh what I may enjoy owning more. Having both is not an option. Here is a link to volume 1 on Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/G-I-Joe-Complete-Collection-Vol/dp/161377396X/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1405264397&sr=1-2&keywords=GI+Joe+complete+collection
  6. Ok so I will call you out on it because I was one of the first to tell you to do this Kav. Call up CGC and see what it takes to do a sketch op and start doing some blanks. Submit them to CGC and get that yellow SS label done for commissions that read sketch and signed by "Kav"
  7. Welcome to the club. I think that Batman 9 had one of the best covers of the early part of the run. What a classic cover. It has been paid homage to many times since its debut.
  8. That leads me to my next question... How many people are voting for Kav to go away, not because they want him to, but because they are curious to see if he would follow through with it?
  9. Hector is bringing the funny tonight. I am going to go to bed but leave you with this. Pretty soon the powers that be will determine that these pay it forward and giving tree threads are going to go the way of the mystery box threads and be heavily regulated if not shut down. I liked the holiday Christmas secret santa thing and wanted to participate in that again this year. Let's not get this stuff shut down. I am going to have another guess the grade contest and give some reading material away again. Let's not get this stuff shut down.
  10. You have no idea what you are missing.
  11. We interrupt this thread to bring you Buzzetta's thoughts and how to put an end to drama.... Press play as you read and thank me later. I think that a lot of this could easily be put to rest if there was a value cap placed on things. You could pay whatever you wanted in order to ship your item but there should definitely be a range where everyone could participate and no one would feel hurt. I got no pony in this race kiddies. Perhaps like in the $25-35 range. Then things are of value, the thread runs its course and then there you go. Want to go $40 to $50... whatever... Just keep in mind that sometimes the natural tendency of these things is to feel compelled to one up the ante in order to show appreciation for what was claimed. Eventually it gets to the point that someone is not going to be able to reciprocate and others will have hurt feelings. However, as the Paul, John, Ringo and George said... (I'm tired of everyone putting Ringo last) "And in the end, the love you take, is equal to the love you make."
  12. I am literally sitting here drinking a Sam Adams (Andrew no get to drink much beer no more) and have my feet up as I read through the forum...
  13. Ryan likes to be dramatic, it's part of his charm Turn the power off for 24 hours in Los Angeles got a better one, shut down the cgc servers for maintenance Or... put Jar Jar Binks in Episode VII. I picked up some power of the force toys today at an estate sale - they may or may not show up here soon Oh cool - I have a full set of the original Kenner figs anyway so NOT looking to buy. PM me though and share what you got. The last 17 had some pretty decent sculpts for their time.

  15. In the words of Henny Youngman "please take my wife" Just do what I do, sit in and
  16. They go all the way up to 202 as far as a straight run, I think. I'll go over them more after I sleep. Peace, Chip Nice pickup on the 6hr drive. Let me know in advance when you set up a sales thread please. Thnx
  17. Since we are basically celebrating Seinfeld here in NY this month...
  18. The $40 was a decent offer, again he should have pursued it through the ebay system in a timely manner. Asking for complete replacement at this time seems like a bit much. +1 Also, Jimmy, did you say that this person is also a boardie? Yes. It was an ebay purchase and he contacted me on the boards about it. I know of one other person approached by this person for the same thing. I forget where it was, but I noticed it when he brought it up in a thread in CG and you alluded to it with a thumbs up or something. Eight months later he says he never received his mail from you and someone else? Really? You did your part. I will tell you right now what my vote is should your name come up for the PL regarding an eight month old eBay buy. I vote 'no' you do not belong on the list.
  19. Does that mean it's his 3rd strike...or did they give him 3 strikes at once? If it's 3 at once, wouldn't that be his 4th for the year? I believe what happened was: He had received a Strike in December. He received another recently that should have been treated as a Second, but was only treated as a first. Additionally, he had threatened another Boardie recently that went unnoticed by the mods until Arch saw some discussing it in public. I'll let the couple of guys that were involved take the credit though! What was the context in which the threats were made? Link?
  20. This makes Shaq happy! Me? I simply approve.
  21. I walk away from the boards for an hour to see 166 news posts in a thread. That tells me one thing...
